I first met Anna Stovall at the April Festival of 2002 in South California. She immediately charmed audience (myself included) with her nice personality. Then she just put wonderful performance and effortlessly showed us her works of genius. Indeed, songs that she compose or translate come beautifully finished, and so natural as if no effort was spent on the composition. Her translations deserve to be mentioned separately. It is not often that I see translations that are so beautiful and preserve original form so well. In addition they are translations between cultures, not just languages. Anna performs in six languages and writes lyrics in two.

Anna is coming to Seattle and Portland on her first Northwestern tour. She will perform songs of her own in Russian and English as well as other Gypsy, Brazilian and Georgian songs. She'll be here with her talent, her charm, so give it up for a beautiful lady from Salt Lake City, Anna Stovall!
